Next Arsenal manager: Expert reveals huge update on who will replace Arsene Wenger

ARSENAL have held three meetings with former Barcelona boss Luis Enrique, it has been claimed.

The Gunners are on the hunt for a new boss to replace Arsene Wenger, who will step down at the end of the season.

And journalist Ian McGarry, a regular pundit on the Transfer Window Podcast, says the net is closing on on Enrique to replace Wenger at the Emirates.

He revealed: "I can say with some authority that there have been three meetings with Luis Enrique and his representatives in the past four months.

"And it’s my understanding that while there are other candidates, and no decision has been made, that’s the most attention Arsenal have paid to any one candidate in the time they’ve been looking for Arsene Wenger’s replacement."

Wenger last week claimed he was forced to step down as Arsenal manager earlier than he hoped.
